[quote="DanMatney"]I have a batch file that needs to pull down some files from another site, copy them to a few places and then upload them to a couple of sites.  I wrote everything and pasted it in the command prompt and it seemed like it was going to be perfect.  Each segment did what it was supposed to do but, when I launch it, it hangs after my first sftp connection.
[code]@batch@
echo on
set curr_date=%DATE:~10,4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%

winscp /console /log=c:\temp\sender.log /command "open sftp://user:password@sshftp.sender.com:22"

get -delete sender2*.*
exit
c:

The script is hanging after I make the connection.  All that I see in the command prompt is:

Any ideas on this one?  Should I just break every segment into a different batch file and call it in a main batch file?

Anything that anyone has on this would be greatly appreciated.  I am 6 hours into this and am finally asking for help.

Thanks![/quote]

I have a batch file that needs to pull down some files from another site, copy them to a few places and then upload them to a couple of sites. I wrote everything and pasted it in the command prompt and it seemed like it was going to be perfect. Each segment did what it was supposed to do but, when I launch it, it hangs after my first sftp connection.

echo on
set curr_date=%DATE:~10,4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%
echo %curr_date%
